I have used Bell Ray ever since "FBI" got me ADDICTED to giant scale, until last season I bought a new bottle and noticed they changed the mix ratio for oil per gallon required. I called DA and they were aware of that already. The oil ratio was in terms made to need more oil per Gal. Since this was an issue with other pilots not knowing of the change, I switched to Redline. The only reservation I have is that it leaves more of a black mess on my plane. Some people tell me this is because it is cleaning the other crap out, but I am using it in a new DA, so that is not true! I do like the performance.
I switched this Spring too, and I think I do notice a little more crap on the plane but I'm also half way through a 5 gallon jug that will make 95 gallons this year so maybe I'm just flying more!!!!

I'm going to start a new website with just a few simple rules

1.  No "best oil, radio, airplane, servo, etc.." threads

2.  A little sarcasm is healthy... just don't cross that line.

3. When in doubt... refer to #1.

 

Anyone know anything about starting up a site?
I am going to start a new website that only talks about the best oil...going to make a fortune!

Well I've been on Redline a couple of months now and it been good so far...don't get nearly as much black goo splattered on the plane, very little smoke and the engines performing great.

I have been using Stihl Ultra HP in my engines from the start, I mix it with 98 octane ethanol free gas. Engines run awesome!
